Well...what can Michelle and I say that we haven't said before...This concert like all before totally rocked!!!! Those guys only get better and better. Do they ever give a bad concert? So for a change we are going to let our daughters Becca, Caitlin, and Marlee write this review for us. It will be from the perspective of one 11 year old and two eight year olds. Let's see what they think of the guys...But in the mean time Michelle and I have compiled a few of our favorite highlights of the concert...
Our Highlights...
Seeing Mackie and Diana with Zoe before the concert...no we did not take pictures...we refused to. Mackie said "No pictures".
Meeting the family friend before the concert and having him recognize us from Detroit. (Very cool!)
Getting my picture taken with John of AT...this is a Kim memory.
The music of course...what great music they play!
The guys having a waterfight on stage with the supersoakers.
Taylor singing with wet hair and the droplets sparkling in the lights...simply amazing sight. Uhhhhhhh...this sound brought to you by a stunned Kim.
Getting supersoaked for the first time....wahoo...finally.
Taylor asking the people down front to stop pushing one another when they wanted to shake his hand.
Zac's non-stop smiling.
Zac's cool camo pants.
Almost catching two of Tay's water bottle...they landed in the row in front of us.
Taylor and Isaac bumping heads during the "Weird" acapella and Taylor laughing about it.
Meeting Regina, Michelle, Dawn, Jessica, Amy, Suzanne, and Kathy for the first time. What fun we had!!! (They are a blast)
Just being blessed enough to be able to see these three incredible musicians for a third time...The music does speak for itself and we hear it loud and clear!!!
The guys doing the old bait and switch with the blue bus so they could go over to the Pool...pretty tricky guys!!! Way to go!!! For some strange reason Kim can run with the speed of light when she sees that bus (she didn't scream this time though, thank goodness)...to bad she was tricked by it. Michelle as usual raced after her to make sure she did not get hurt. (All was safe!)
Going to the Coney Island Sunlite Pool the next day and relaxing where the night before the guys had been relaxing after the show (itz right by the venue)...no we didn't see anything so don't ask us about it...the bike patrol dudes were buzzing the minivan, although Kim insisted she could take them on. Kim loves the Pipeline Plunge...all except for that wedgie you get at the end of it when your butt bumps over the little rolly things that slow you down. Michelle loved the Zoom Flume. The pool was loved by all. What a fun day!!!! Hope the guys enjoyed it as much as we did.
Now we will turn it over to the kids...
We left Port Clinton in a poster covered van listening to awesome tunes (why...Hanson of course and AdmiralTwin). We drove for what hardly seemed like 4 hours. Then we found our hotel and met new friends. After that we went to see AdmiralTwins' van and we saw an amp in the back! Next stop lunch.......
We went back to the hotel, changed our clothes, (we wore glow in the dark shirts with Ohio (Caitlin) Loves (Marlee) Hanson
Finally, we got to go in! We walked around and around the circle trying to find the guy with backstage passes---Suzanne, Michelle, Jessie, Amy, Regina, Kathy, Dawn and the rest of us didn't find him! We got to meet Jarrod and John from AdmiralTwin and got their autographs! We saw the rest of the AT band behind the fence! Now off to find our seats!
They were the coolest seats, Marlee thought that she was so lucky to sit there, Becca said it felt like she was right there and Caiti thought she was so close she could go on stage!
Now comes ADMIRALTWIN!!!!!! Marlee: "They were the coolest!" Caiti: "They were really good! Why aren't they on MTV?" Becca: "They sounded like the band that plays the "Friends" song! I can't believe they haven't hit #1 yet!"
Drumroll please.......ITZ Hanson........
Gray curtain with flashlight behind it....the music starts....curtain falls.....ROCK AND ROLL!!! "Gimme some lovin'"
got everybody into the groove of things! After that the songs all blended into one big musical masterpiece! Highlights of the concert for each of the girls will be marked as follows:
